    What do reviewers say about Shalimar L'Essence and Cuir Béluga Hair Mist?

    This is not your grandmother's Shalimar. L'Essence takes the classic in a more abstract direction with incense and almond leading the charge. The vanilla is still there but draped in smoke and iris.Shalimar L'Essence
    Hair mist means close, not projecting. The aldehydes shimmer without screaming, and the suede base keeps everything tender. If you want a room to know you arrived, look elsewhere.Cuir Béluga Hair Mist
